“Why do you go away?

“Why do you go away? So that you can come back. So that you can see the place you came from with new eyes and extra colors. Coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving.”
― Terry Pratchett, A Hat Full of Sky

I love Terry Pratchetts books.

spent a nice and sunny day in the Moormuseum, where I watched dragonflies and admired the vegetation

Mini-Emsflower

as soon as I got there the sun was gone :(

Bananarama

Got my first photo as a canvas today and like it :).
With 90 x 60 it´s a bit small, but was expensive enough...
I wanted a motif I wouldn´t get tired of too quickly, which was simple & meant something to me. And it had to be green, my favorite color.
So I chose a close-up of a banana leaf because I love the red-green contrast and I came along bananas on so many of my travels.
In Thailand I ate rice from banana leafs, in Ecuador I sat at the lagoon and fed bananas to the fish, in Costa Rica I discovered that fried bananas (platanos) could become my favorite dish ever... This photo was taken in Honduras.

"Green is the prime color of the world, and that from which its loveliness arises." -- Pedro Calderon de la Barca

"He had that curious love of green, which in individuals is always the sign of a subtle artistic temperament, and in nations is said to denote a laxity, if not a decadence of morals." -- Oscar Wilde

Foxcubs

There is a fox den close to home and yesterday night I was lucky to watch all 4 cubs playing on the road right in front :).
